You must try these addictively sweet and spicy Candied Jalapenos. They are easy to make and require only three ingredients: sugar, water, and jalapeño peppers.
Combine the sugar, water, and jalapenos in a pot over medium heat. Stir until the sugar has dissolved, simmer for about 15 minutes on low heat. Remove from the heat and let cool completely.
Store in an airtight jar for up to 10 days in the refrigerator.
Notes
Use gloves to slice the jalapenos to avoid burning your eyes or nose.
You can adjust the heat by removing some of the seeds, but the sugar really offsets the heat in the peppers.
You can use leftover syrup to make cocktails like jalapeno margaritas.
